I have an original 1984 Combat records Mercyful Fate LP signed by the entire line up that appers on the record. Signed sometime in the 80s. I believe its rare enough just to track down an original pressing nowadays without any signitures.

Im quite curious how much people would cough up for an item like this. $20? $50? $100? More? I know there are some people on here that are pretty big on MF/KD (including myself) so I seek some of your opinions.

I may actually want to part with this if I can get a decent offer. Trade or sale. Or maybe I'll put it on ebay but I thought I'd post it around here firstPost, PM or nokturnalpoisoning@hotmail.com

Yeah, for me too, the whole thing about autographs to me is that you've met the band. But the original pressing to me is worth at least $40-$50

??? that much.

you see this record quite often on metal markets or on e-bay. It's certainly not rare.â‚¬10 for a perfect copy should do it.

Concerning the autographs....it's nice to have signed items...when you have it signed in front of you.Not for buying stuff like that on e-bay. (easy for me to say since i have quite a few signed items)

In the end it's up to the individual, as i am sure there are people out there who would like too pay good money (about $35 / $40 (just an estimate) for it.

I also have Combat. It's ordered from Canada by a local tiny record store and it's got a hole through the cover. How does one know if it's original or not? I bought it 1990. It also have lyrics included, unlike Roadrunner-version that one of my friends bought from Finland.

I also have the Roadrunner Records Version with Lyrics (IÂ´m from Germany) - when the lyrics are missing then itÂ´s not original....they just got lost!!! I have some LPÂ´s by myself were I bought second hand and the lyrics were missing....itÂ´s a damn thing but sometimes when you only pay 2 Euros for a pretty rare LP then itÂ´s ok when the lyrics were missing....(especially when you can get them in the internet...)

Hi there! Well, I agree with the opinion that an autograph is worth a fortune to the one who gets it from the band, but it means nothing if you just pay some (or some more!) bucks for it just to "own" it! I was (and still am) surprised about the biddings for the signed hood of my car (the oversiced "Conspiracy"-Cover); last price offered was about 2300,- Euro just for the hood... . But no matter what the price will ever be: it was a gift from King and the band to ME and I`ll NEVER sell it!!! It`s UNHOLY to me - my precious (*hissssssss...!*)!!! By the way, my 4-year-old girl would be very sad if there suddenly would`t be "the masked singer" (=King) on the hood - she already loves his music (well, most of it)! Anyway, if you sell a signed album/item (how could you do it if THEY signed it for you!?!), put up a realistic price for the item itself and sell it to someone "worth owning" it (even if the band signed for someone else). Cause the "Don`t Break the Oath"-LP isn`t that rare I think 10-20$ would be fair, even if someone offers you more - don`t just support the rich! OK, enough about this "Voice of Reason"-stuff!

See you for tea, sometime!!! --- Amon 666 ---
